Nice keepsake. Do you know what kind of equipment he was running back then?

I remember him telling me that he had to build his own rig to get his license,don't know if that's what he was running then.I seem to recall he got his license when he was 14.

If you're interested in old radios, check out the Antique Wireless Association website. There's a link for a virtual tour of their museum showing all kinds of boat anchors. They also have on-the-air events where members fire up some of their old transmitters.
